The episode begins with Dimpy deliberating on what to wear for Pakhi's birthday party. Titu tells her to pick anything, but Dimpy insists on looking her best for the event. He advises her to shop less. Dimpy argues she can't wear the same clothes twice since her photos will be taken and go viral, mentioning her 1 million followers. 

Titu points out that those followers were bought by their father. Dimpy defends herself, saying many celebrities do the same. When Titu shifts the topic to her shopping habits, Dimpy responds that she uses her son's money, not his, and questions what was wrong in asking for Samar's share, as he is also their father's son.

Titu confronts Dimpy about parenting and priorities

Titu asserts that Ansh is his son now and informs Dimpy that Ansh's teacher reported he failed three subjects. Dimpy suggests changing his tutor. Titu asks her to teach Ansh, emphasizing that their son needs parental attention. Dimpy refuses, saying she's too busy and their father will handle it. She then insists she'll decide on her clothes and leave. Titu reflects that Dimpy has changed, not due to his love, but because of money, and she is no longer the Dimpy he once loved.

Kinjal approaches Baa, placing a rose in her hair bun, and encourages her to keep smiling. She inquires if Babu ji gave her the rose. Baa becomes emotional, explaining that they have grown apart like the two sides of a sea—they can see each other but can't be together. She mentions that in their old age, they should be together, but they are separated. 

Kinjal empathizes, saying she understands how it feels to be apart from a husband and assures her that Babu ji and Baa will reunite soon. Baa, however, is doubtful, blaming Anupama for the separation, thinking she is seeking revenge. Kinjal explains that Babu ji is upset with Papa for signing the house papers, as the house meant everything to him. 

Baa insists she's thinking about her children's happiness. Kinjal challenges this, saying they are not happy and warns that Baa and Babu ji won't see each other once they move to the penthouse. Baa asks why Babu ji stays there. Kinjal explains it's because of the happiness, peace, and family atmosphere, despite financial constraints. She urges Baa to take a step towards reconciling with Babu ji.

Toshu gets dressed and confronts Kinjal, questioning why she's dressed like a servant and urging her to prepare for the party. They argue, with Toshu questioning why she wants to act like a servant instead of being like Anupama. 

Kinjal defends herself, saying she can't leave the children with servant care and explaining she chose to leave her family's luxurious life to have a real family. She emphasizes she doesn't want a penthouse, just a close-knit family. Toshu suggests she leave if she's unhappy, but Kinjal points out he'd be lonely without her.
